Something To Believe In

He's got a hot rod El Camino

He's playin' Hendrix on the stereo

Wearin' blue jeans and high tops

He's got a .45 in the glove box

And there's a preacher on the sidewalk

And he's beatin' down on his Bible

If you listen to his lesson

He'll tell you how to get to heaven

Everybody needs somethin' to believe in

Everybody's just lookin' for a better way

Searchin' through the creases

Siftin' through the tiny bits and pieces

Everybody's lookin', oh, everybody's lookin'

For something to believe in

He's got an office on the tenth floor

He's got his nameplate on the glass door

He's been dealin' in the market

He's gonna hit it big but he hasn't yet

Yeah, there's a farmer down the dirt road

And he's prayin' for the mother lode

Gotta get a rain on his dry land

To save his family from the money man

Everybody needs somethin' to believe in

Everybody's just lookin' for a better way

Searchin' through the creases

Siftin' through the tiny bits and pieces

Everybody's lookin', oh, everybody's lookin'

For something to believe in

Well, there's twenty-five on a row boat

And they're floatin' into the gold coast

Riskin' everything for one chance

At a better life in the Promised Land

Everybody needs somethin' to believe in

Everybody's just lookin' for a better way

Searchin' through the creases

Siftin' through the tiny bits and pieces

Everybody's lookin', oh, everybody's lookin'

Hey, everybody's lookin', oh, everybody's lookin'

For something to believe in

Everybody's lookin', lookin', lookin'

Everybody's lookin'

For something to believe in
